yeah starwars was never anything more than very formulaic adventure with a touch of western and ww2, and mandalorian does a better job of capturing that than pretty much any other starwars since forever

When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

That which has become hard shall not triumph.

I’m not sure if “political chat” was courting the negative attention, as much as it was the grim imbalance of ideological humours that leads some, when faced with the option of either clicking a link to get the joke/ignoring a post because Twitter sucks, or raving about sex criminals bombing the Middle East, to first always pick the latter, then quiz you about how much Palestinian blood you drink at your sex slave parties if you do a wellness check on them.

At some point being ok with it because this is doom world and it melts brains, or whatever, evinces the same flaw that ruins nerd circles; everyone is welcome, regardless of any borderline psychotic tendencies, so long as they don’t technically make your gathering an active crime scene, because you’re convinced saying something would make you mean, just like the people that made or make you feel bad.

I liked it, very chill good hearted show, and also has pretty good portrayal of working classs people struggling with lovely jobs and life, but not in a depressing way? It's very much about people supporting eachother and trying to carve their own little place in this lovely world, I liked it a lot. Dud is a good boi

I wouldn't really compare it to Under the Silver Lake

I am currently procuring New Zealand's answer to mad max, 1982s Battletruck, also known as Warlords of the 21st Century and I am very excited to watch it

Battletruck is directed by Harvey Cokeliss who was the second unit director on The Empire Strikes Back and also directed the weird tommy lee jones/linda hamilton movie Black Moon Rising which was written by john carpenter

also the bizarre british horror movie Dream Demon

also the intensely satisfying Burt Reynolds action thriller Malone (1987)

watched Art of Self Defence, very babbys first critique of hypermasculinity, boring, predictable, every character spoke with the exact same annoying robotic affectation. Jesse Eisenberg plays the exact same character he always plays in these indie movies.

note that that chart is potentially misleading of the way they're aggregating services

as an example the "Disney+" category is up only ~5.6m instead of the indicated 16.2m, the bulk of the growth is actually Hotstar in India
